He sat on the Supreme Court of Ireland from 1997 until his retirement in 2000. He was the first Jew to hold this position. Prior to this he spent 15 years as a judge of the High Court.[2] Justice Barron was also noted for granting the Republic of Ireland's first divorce in 1997. He was President of the Irish Jewish Museum. CareerBarron attended Castle Park School in Dalkey, County Dublin before progressing to Saint Columba's College, Rathfarnham.[3] He studied at third level in Trinity College, Dublin. Upon his departure in 1950 Barron scored first class honours and was awarded a moderatorship in legal science.[3] In 1951 he began the Bar and silk followed nineteen years later.[3] Barron was a High Court judge for fifteen years,[6] beginning this job in 1982. In 1997 he granted the state's first divorce prior to his appointment to the Supreme Court in the same year.[6][8] He was the first Jew ever appointed to the Irish Supreme Court.[3] Retirement and Barron ReportJustice Barron retired in 2000.[6] He was then commissioned to investigate the 1974 Dublin and Monaghan bombings and took over from Justice Liam Hamilton who departed due to ill health.[3] He investigated bombing incidents in Castleblayney, Dundalk, Dublin Airport, the Miami Showband murders and the deaths of eighteen other individuals.[4] His report, termed The Barron Report and presented to the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Justice in December 2003, was highly critical of the investigation into the bombings by both the Fine Gael/Labour government and the Gardaí,[6][5] and stated they might have made a better attempt to catch those responsible.[4] He did not lay any definitive blame on the British government.[6] DeathBarron died at the age of 81 in St. Vincent's University Hospital, Dublin on 25 February 2010,[6] having been unwell for a short time.[6] His wife Rosalind had predeceased him by 13 years.[3] 2 sons (Harrie & Robert), 2 daughters (Jane & Anne) and 10 grandchildren outlived him.[6][4] Barron's funeral took place at Dolphin's Barn's Jewish cemetery at 12:15 on 26 February 2010.[3][7] After his death tributes were made by politicians and campaigners for justice: {{cquote|As the sole member of the Commission of Inquiry into the Dublin and Monaghan bombings of 1974 and into a number of other bombings and atrocities which occurred in this State during the 1970s, he undertook his task with great sensitivity and thoroughness. Tribute from Taoiseach Brian Cowen[8]}}{{cquote|As a member of the Oireachtas Committee which subsequently held hearings based on the investigation carried out by Mr Justice Barron, I came to fully appreciate extent the scope of the work he had undertaken and the demands placed on his. He showed great commitment in the search for the truth about these events and in his dealing with the families he displayed exceptional understanding and sensitivity. It was as a result of the refusal of the British authorities to cooperate in full with the investigation, rather than any failings on the part of Henry Barron, that those responsible have still not been brought to justice. Tribute from Joe Costello (Labour)[3] }}{{cquote|He wasn't afraid to name names, he wasn't afraid to criticise the Irish and British Governments, and he wasn't afraid of the security forces north or south of the border. The British security forces, the state and the Cosgrave coalition all came for heavy criticisms from Judge Barron. It gave families some sort of closure.
